NOTICE: Half Load Restrictions In Effect From March 6th, 2019 To Mid-late April 2019

March 06, 2019

During the spring thaw, most Rural roads become too soft to withstand the weight of a fully loaded truck, no matter how many axles.In an effort to reduce damage to our roads during spring thaw, weight restrictions of 5 tonnes per axle on all rural roads within the Municipality of Port Hope have been imposed, from March 6th, 2019 to mid-late April 2019.

Please check with Northumberland County for any weight restrictions that they may have on their roads that pass through our Municipality

Please assist us in reducing repairs to our road system by not having heavy deliveries to your property this time of year.
